The EU announced on Monday that it had sanctioned six officials in Sudan over the war between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), Reuters reported.
These lists include a commanding general of the RSF, the financial advisor of RSF, as well as a prominent tribal leader of the RSF-affiliated Mahamid clan in West Darfur.
On the side of the Sudanese army, sanctions target the director of Defense Industry Systems and the commander of the Sudanese Air Force for their responsibility in the “indiscriminate aerial bombing of densely populated residential areas”, the EU Council said.
Former Sudanese Minister of Foreign Affairs Ali Ahmed Karti Mohamed is also listed.
The six are now subject to an asset freeze and travel ban in the 27-nation European Union.
